Our top newborn photographer, Erika, has been documenting baby portraits for over ten years and is an expert in baby posing, safety and in creating creative baby pictures. She is also a celebrity baby photographer and in addition to her notable clients, she has also appeared on Lifetime TV, the Oprah show and written a book on how to take great family photos titled "The Parent's Pocket Guide: Taking kids and family photos" available on Amazon.

The best time to document a newborn's photographs is between five and ten days after birth. Many of our clients travel from the San Fernando Valley when they hire us to take their baby's first photo shoot. We often have clients from Pasadena, Studio City, Sherman Oaks, Encino, Woodland Hills, Calabasas, Thousand Oaks and Ventura County. Since our studio is all natural light, our photography is very safe for those precious, brand new baby eyes.

The first step in having our expert newborn photographer document your baby's pictures is to have your due date confirmed on our calendar. We generally book up 1-3 months in advance so it is important to call us early. Our phone number is 310-391-4500 and we are happy to set up either an in-person consultation where you can come to our studio to meet your photographer, see all our our props and tour the studio. Or, if it more convenient for you, we can also talk over the phone about the details of your newborn photo session. If you are visiting us from a South Bay city such as Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach, Redondo Beach or Torrance we are conveniently located off the 405 freeway.

We are a full service photography studio and provide all of the props, outfits and accessories for your baby's photo session. We have lots of hat, headbands, newborn outfits as well as all the background and snuggly fabrics you can imagine. We lot to get to know you and your style before your photo session so that we can use out creativity to design a photo session specifically for your family.

Wondering what to do with your beautiful pictures after the photo session? Never fear, as part of the service we offer - we do an in-person ordering appointment with you about two weeks after your photo session. At that time our consultant will walk you through the different options such as well art, baby albums, birth announcements and grandparent gifts. We have an in-house designer and re-toucher who specializes in creating these on-of-a kind, custom items for you.
